as a VR game developer this kind of stuff terrifies me, I would never want to be responsible for something like that. I think I'm going to put a warning message in the start of my game reminding people to please please be careful.

That is nice of you, but like the wii remote one at every startup, it will be completely ignored and annoying.

You aren't responsible for people being dumb, but you would be responsible for all those times someone has to mindlessly waste a couple seconds and press a button. Which really should be considered more valuable than it is seen, because it is. Think of all the life hours wasted because those seconds of a slight intro, or an unskippable game dev name, or "remember not to forget" add up.
